Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Research teams around the world aim at developing photocatalysts that can be effectively utilized for environmental applications. These materials can be suitable for the mitigation of pollutants in gas, liquid and solid phases. This Special Issue aims to collect quality papers about the preparation, characterization and application of photocatalytic materials. The collected articles will underline the surface, textural, structural, optical and electrochemical properties of these nanomaterials, and focus on the applicability of photocatalysts in either UV or visible light irradiation. Studies concerning on reaction mechanisms and kinetics of study photocatalytic reactions are also welcome.
I am pleased to invite you to submit manuscripts for this Special Issue on “Photocatalysts for Environmental Applications”, in the form of research papers, communications, letters, and review articles. We look forward to your participation in this Special Issue of Materials.
Prof. Dr. Kamila Kočí
Guest Editor
Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Materials is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
